we install the watchdog service at runtime by gathering the current executable via
os.Executable()
. If this occurs from an autoupdated version, it will hold up autoupdate'sTidyLibrary
functionality later (or break watchdog if watchdog is stopped while tidy runs).To avoid this we can just install the service with the originally installed launcher.exe path, instead of the currently running autoupdate version. That path is left alone, but the find latest logic should still allow the correct launcher version to run the watchdog code
